    A few weeks ago I hurt my knee squatting with bad form. I read Starting Strength and watched the DVDs after that happened. The first video is me squatting Monday. The other two are from today. Let me know what you guys think please.

    1) You are a bit high
    2) Out of the hole, you are pushing your hips back and up. Hips should be driven straight up. You can see this by watching your knees.
    3) Get your head down and keep it there.
    4) Your feet might be a bit too far apart. Hard to tell. One of the disadvantages of coaching by video.
